`Samrat & Co.` and Subhash Ghai's `Kaanchi` haven't struck the right chord yet.
According to sources, `2 States`, which released April 18, has earned Rs.69.83 crore net in the country.
Based on a bestseller by author Chetan Bhagat, it is directed by first-timer Abhishek Varman.
`'2 States' is still leading. Among the new releases, 'Revolver Rani' is doing the best. It has minted approximately Rs.3.25 crore in two days. 'Kaanchi' has collected about Rs.1.25 crore and 'Samrat & Co.' must have earned not more than Rs.50 lakh,` Rajesh Thadani of Multimedia Combines told IANS.
Though Kangana Ranaut-starrer `Revolver Rani` has done relatively better than the other two films that released April 25, the movie's performance at the box-office is not as good as her previous film "Queen".
`The buzz wasn't that great. Even the songs are not good and promotions didn't create much hype,` said Thadani.
Tagged as a `complete B-grade entertainment` by its producer Tigmanshu Dhulia, the film presents Kangana shooting guns and acting more like a male hero.
While `Samrat & Co.` shows Rajeev Khandelwal as an investigator in the detective movie, women empowerment-based `Kaanchi` is Ghai's directorial after six years.
